Verse
G# D#7
Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried
G#
To a sympathetic beetle by his side
D#7
I've got nobody to hug
G#
I'm such an ug-i-ly bug
G# D#7
Then a spider and a dragonfly replied
G# Fm
If you're serious and want to win a bride
G# D#7 G#
Come along with us, to the glorious annual ugly bug ball
[Chorus]
G# C#
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
G#
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
C# D# G# C# G#
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
[Verse 2]
G# D#7
While the crickets click their cricky melodies
G#
All the ants were fancy dancing with the fleas
D#7
Then up from under the ground
G#
The worms came squirming around
G# D#7
Oh they danced until their legs were nearly lame
G# Fm
Every little crawling creature you could name
G#
Everyone was glad, what a time they had
D#7 G#
They were so happy they came
[Chorus]
G# C#
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
G#
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
C# D# G# C# G#
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
[Verse 3]
G# D#7
Then our caterpillar saw a pretty queen
G#
She was beautiful and yellow black and green
D#7
He said would you care to dance
G#
Their dancing lead to romance
G# D#7
Then she sat upon his caterpillar knee
G# Fm
And he gave his caterpillar queen a squeeze
G#
Soon they'll honeymoon, build a big cocoon
D#7 G#
Thanks to the ugly bug ball
[Chorus]
G# C#
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
G#
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
C# D# G# C# G#
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
